Dieselpunk Alice with Guns and Zeppelins

Traveler | 28. Juli 2010

Right, next year the director of Watchmen and 300 has a new project. This one is Sucker Punch and IMDB has the following very short statement concerning the plot: A young girl is institutionalized by her wicked stepfather. Retreating to an alternative reality as a coping strategy, she envisions a plan which will help her [...]

Diesel-Pulp-Minimovies

Traveler | 15. Juli 2010

Just recently stumbled across the Youtube Channel of Battlejitni, so far there are only two videos in it, but it sure looks promising. One is a trailer, the other one is the following: It looks a lot like pulp and it sure is fun, and it does not take itself too seriously, and that’s something [...]

Turkish Steampunk Short Film

Traveler | 9. Juli 2010

Steampunk really is an international cultural phenomenon. Although most of us are only aware of Steampunks in Western Europe and the English speaking parts of the world, and I do my best to introduce my readers to our sisters an brothers in Eastern Europe, you can find Steampunk all over the globe. And this is [...]

Teslapunk

Traveler | 16. Juni 2010

Who would have thought it… Another facet of Steampunk is making moves to assert itself. Next to Dieselpunk, there now stands Teslapunk. Obviously, it is inspired by the technology invented by Nikola Tesla (Никола Тесла) and takes his ideas into the future. Based on the idea of Teslapunk, a short-film named Bottled Lightning is currently in [...]

Stardust – A movie to make a happy day

Traveler | 10. Juni 2010

I really regret not having had time yet to actually read the book behind this most excellent movie, but I am sure I will get round to it eventually. When a friend of mine (Timo, my main collaborator for internet weirdness on this blog) and me went to see it, I only knew that it [...]

Gertie the Dinosaur

Traveler | 8. April 2010

A beautiful little cartoon about an Apatosaurus-like, more or less domesticated dinosaur by the name of Gertie: Tells you a lot about people’s attitudes towards these creatures back in the day. If a team of intrepid explorers had in deed discovered a hidden Valley of the Giants, this is very likely how the poor archaeo-fauna [...]
